Take control of your lights with the Standard Ignition Headlight Switch DS-215. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1982 Volkswagen Scirocco, restoring driver control over the headlight circuit through a single dash-mounted switch. A headlight switch opens and closes the electrical circuit that powers the exterior lighting, so a worn or failing original can leave you fighting flickering, intermittent, or dead lights after dark.
- Switches the lighting circuit: makes and breaks the electrical connection that turns the headlights on and off from the driver's position.
- Direct-fit application: designed to install on the listed vehicle so you can swap it in place of the worn original.
- Replaces a worn original: gives you a fresh switch when the factory unit has become intermittent or unresponsive.
If a failed headlight switch is the cause of lights that cut out, flicker, or won't come on, this replaces it. Diagnose the circuit first, since wiring, fuses, relays, or bulbs can produce similar signs.
